D. B. SAC.
Diagram 306.
The loose-fitting jackets have met with a large share of popularity during recent seasons.
The drafting is as previously described in the shoulder, scye, neck and front.
Only 1 inch is allowed for making up from 8 to 19.
Come back from construction line at 15½, 1 inch.
Let front overlap back 2 inches at side.
Continue seams through to the bottom.
The degree of looseness or "sac" is a matter of taste.
Sometimes the side seams are hollowed, but in any case plenty of room must be given round the hips and lower part of the jacket, or the leading feature of style will be lost.
The overlap allowed in front varies to taste. I have indicated 3 inches.
This may be increased or decreased to taste.
There is plenty of scope, too, in the shape given to the lapel, the outline indicated being but one of the many shapes that may be arranged at that part.
Pockets on the hips about 3 inches below waist.
The back is cut on the crease.
The buttons stand as far behind breast line as the eve of the hole is m front of it.
The pockets are sometimes put in with vertical welts as shown on above figure.
Sleeve is cut as Diagram 293.
